== Size changes ==
 
I noticed that there are various Hivemaster feats that grant changes in size, but the wording of those changes varies significantly, and there are some cases where the description is incomplete or confusing. I was hoping I could get some clarifications.
 
- In ''Aspect of the Centipede'', does the effective size increase include a reduction in your attack bonus, AC, and Hide rolls? Does it include the Ability Score changes associated with the given size change? If it doesn't include any of the things mentioned above, is it really just an increase in carrying capacity, special attack bonus, and wieldable weapon/claw size?
 
- In ''Aspect of the Dragonfly'' it just says "you are considered one size category larger". What effects does this have?
 
- In ''Aspect of the Titan Beetle'', is the double size increase granted at level 15 just an improvement on the level 7 ability, or is it a permanent size increase that stacks with that ability?
 
- For ''Aspect of the Locust'' and ''Aspect of the Titan Beetle'' (and possibly ''Aspect of the Dragonfly''), it seems odd that the size increases wouldn't come with ability changes, especially in the cases where the size increases are permanent and non-optional. Including those changes would fit with the Vermin Companion's improvements (and probably with the realities of muscle mass in general), since the companion does get ability changes as it increases in size, and it would make the size increases more worthwhile as actual benefits. Plus it would serve as at least some compensation for the permanent inability to fit through standard doors.
 
Thoughts?
